Chapter 131: A Chance Encounter with a Companion
After collecting enough genetic materials, Zhang Muzi knew that he only needed to ensure that the brood received enough energy, and then waited patiently, so that he could naturally evolve again, complete the qualitative change of life in one fell swoop, and theoretically have the force that can compete with a low-level civilization planet, such as any powerful country on the earth, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and sat down directly on a piece of driftwood in the mud. "Top" point "small" said, x.
If he was a perfectionist, he would definitely be interested in shifting his attention from hunting two-star creatures to risking the genes of three-star creatures, after all, after the brood completed the second evolution, although it would be possible to naturally create a three-star biochemical monster with a biological level.
But if you want its 'creations' to be diverse and strong enough, you still have to have a large number of naturally evolved three-star creatures as a blueprint, and now the three-star creature genes devoured by the mother nest are only the domesticated performing animals that were robbed of the 'Starfire Circus', and the few three-star bio-assistant eggs purchased from the franchise store of the Qiangzhu Company.
However, in reality, Zhang Muzi is a person who usually believes in securityism and only goes crazy when he is angry, so he feels that before the biological indicators of the biochemical monsters created by him and the brood do not reach three stars, it is better not to take the initiative to provoke those fierce beasts that he may not be able to resist.
In this case, because the desire to struggle for many days has been achieved, and there is no new goal for the time being, Zhang Muzi's vigorous energy brought by the vitality far beyond ordinary people can hardly compete with the kind of tired that unconsciously flooded in his heart;
Coupled with the tense expedition with a terrible quality of life for more than ten days, the accumulated negative feelings gradually exploded. He sat down on the rotten wood soaked in muddy water and rested for a while, and when he stood up, he suddenly felt that all the qiē around him became unbearable.
"There are still no warships in the sky. Is the army of the central government of 'Ascenko' all waste," Zhang Muzi developed the habit of talking to himself in the jungle alone. Looking up at the blue sky at this time, he suddenly became inexplicably angry, frowned and shouted in a low voice: "It's been a few days, why haven't there been any movement at all."
Or maybe I'm missing something, in fact, the government forces have already recovered the forward base, maybe, maybe I should sneak back to the base to have a look, maybe it's okay to get back to normal as soon as I get to the base, I can take a spaceship back to civilized society..."
Thinking of returning to civilized society. Hot baths, clean underwear, comfortable beds, and other things that Zhang Muzi didn't care about at all before, with an irresistible attraction constantly echoing in his mind, made his previous idea of not waiting for the 'Ascenko' government army fleet to appear, and never approaching the 91244 base was gone.
So looking around to identify the direction, Zhang Muzi unconsciously strode in the direction of the lost base.
Time passed, from day to night, and from night to day, without the intention of continuing to collect biological genes, Zhang Muzi walked most of the journey in only two days in ten days. On the way, although he encountered several dangers because of his hurry, he easily saved the danger with the power of the brood.
At noon on the third day, Zhang Muzi walked into a valley and suddenly found that he had returned to the camp that the team had chosen.
Stand in the middle of the river valley. Remembering the terrifying giant bird with its wings of flames, he couldn't help but shiver even though it was sprinkled with hot sunlight. I couldn't help but be a lot more cautious during my actions, and my pace slowed down as I moved forward. His eyes cautiously looked around.
At this moment, a hoarse female voice with a weak breath. Suddenly, it sounded not far away, "Student Zhang, it seems that so many days of solo exploration have not made you smarter."
At Resource Planet, it's the right thing to do to be vigilant at all times, and you shouldn't suddenly become cautious just because you're recalling terrible past events. ”
This unexpected sound made Zhang Muzi, who had not seen a similar person for hundreds of hours, stiffen his body, and instantly jumped more than ten meters away in the opposite direction from which the voice came, leaning over a giant tree more than 100 meters high, protruding from the ground, and rising high behind the rhizome.
Just as he was curling up to embody the 'Sun and God', to reconnoiter the movements around him, and whether the speaker had malicious intentions, the female voice sounded faintly again, "Your current way of treating intelligent creatures as beasts is also wrong, Mr. Zhang."
Animals that lack intelligence may hesitate to engage in a hunt that may lead to a hunt that may lead to nothing, but there is a half-chance that a hostile human will attack you directly under the roots of a tree in this case. ”
"Miss Ai Tangli, you know a lot about resource star exploration, but from what I hear from my voice, the situation is much worse than mine. Calming down from the initial horror and hearing whose mouth the dry, hoarse lady came from, Zhang Muzi pouted and stood up, strolled in the direction from which the voice came and walked to the foot of another big tree that could only be surrounded by five or six people with their arms outstretched, and whispered.
As he spoke, a large piece of bark at the junction between the root and trunk of the giant tree was uncovered by a dirty palm, and from a hole in the tree came the unkempt face of Ai Tangli, "That's because of my bad luck."
Don't you know that bad luck is the most terrible enemy when it comes to any kind of interstellar exploration?"
"That sounds very reasonable" Zhang Muzi pouted: "It looks like your luck is indeed bad, uh, your face is pale, your limbs are weak, where are you injured?"
"On the night I was attacked by the firebird, I fled with Titan and finally escaped, and then I encountered more than a dozen beasts that were hunting in groups and had a high biological level of two stars, and had to flee separately again," said Ai Tangli with a wry smile: "I was seriously injured that night. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Muzi said in surprise: "Yes, how are you these days, how...", before he could speak, Ai Tangli smiled, pointed to the roots of the damp moss crawling beside him, and said, "Do you want to ask me how I survived."
Since that day, I've been hiding here, eating green moss from the bark of the tree and two tubes of 'high-energy bars' to replenish my water and nutrients, and I have been staying until now. ”
"In this way, no one else in the team has returned to this river valley except for me for so many days?" Zhang Muzi then asked, and then pulled open the rucksack of the protective suit with his backhand, and took out a few long pieces of brown meat that were dried and handed them to Ai Tangli, "This is my own roasted jerky, although the taste is not very good, it should be much better than moss." ”
"Thank you. Ai Tangli took the jerky with a completely different attitude from before, and said while chewing on it: "I have been counting the time since we were attacked by that four-star firebird, and you are the first human I have seen in fourteen days. ”
"What about the battleship," Zhang Muzi thought for a moment and said, "Miss Ai Tangli, have you seen a battleship these days?"
Ai Tangli shook her head and said: "The situation on the 'Akanya Green Star' is very strange now, it stands to reason that the fleet of the central government should have appeared a long time ago, but the reality is the opposite, I haven't even seen a single 'floating skid' of the government army for fourteen days. ”
"I'm like this too," Zhang Muzi frowned and said, "That's why I'm really impatient to wait, and I plan to sneak closer to the 91244 forward base to see what the situation is like." ”
"Can you take me with you?" Encountering this, Ai Tangli asked abruptly, Zhang Muzi was slightly stunned, thought about it carefully, and said truthfully: "Miss Ai Tangli, you are so smart that you should know that in the current situation of uncertainty, it is a very risky thing to approach the realization of the 91244 base.
If you come with me in your current situation, it will be difficult for you to escape alive once you encounter danger. ”
"But if I stay here, I'll die," said Ai Tangli with a wry smile, "How long do you think a human being, even a human with a two-star biological index or high, can live by eating green moss and nutrition bars when the wound begins to inflame and the high fever is not treated?"
"That's it, I'll leave all the food for you," Hearing this, Zhang Muzi pondered for a while and said, "Then sneak to the base by yourself, and I will come back here to find you no matter what the situation is." He took out all the jerky from the backpack and put it in front of Ai Tangli.
Seeing a large pile of hard pieces of meat of different lengths on the root of the tree, a hint of surprise flashed in Ai Tangli's eyes, "It seems that I underestimated your strength, classmate Zhang."
It's not uncommon to be able to flee on the resource planet and survive alone for fourteen days, but to be able to throw away so much food to others without regret. ”
"Is that so," said Zhang Muzi, with a noncommittal smile, "but you are none other than my companion, Miss Orange." ”
"Since we are companions, then you can call me Ai Tangli," Ai Tangli was silent for a few seconds and said, "In the future, I will also call you Muzi directly." ”
Never thought that Ai Tangli, whose face was like frost, could show such a bright smile, Zhang Muzi's heart trembled inexplicably, and he smiled and asked, "Is this a belated recognition?"
"Whatever you want, Muzi," as she spoke, Ai Tangli picked up the jerky in front of her and retracted her body back into the tree hole, "Don't forget your promise to come back quickly." ", and hid himself again with the bark.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Muzi curiously looked at the trees in front of him carefully, and saw that he couldn't see the slightest flaw in the Tibetans, with an admiring expression on his face, and his mouth unconsciously 'tsk' twice, turned around and continued to move in the direction of the 91244 base.
